He's right, we're all thinking it. Garbage.

It's a fully functional trash compactor, yes.

I love the Mammoth. From the outside, it's a truck that I'd try at any red light but we see where that comment's going. Very nice build you've got there. No meth, though?

That's why every accessory excluding the water pump was changed to the layout of a 2010 Camaro.

The alternator is now up against the power steering input shaft, and the universal boot needs to be trimmed for clearance.

The power steering high pressure line was re bent to fit the Camaro pump, and every wire concerning the MAF and everything else was lengthened. The windshield washer reservoir unit was removed and replaced with a compact unit, a custom inner fender well shield was made, and the ECM/TCM was relocated to the top of the radiator support to make way for the air cleaner. It has a slight wire tuck.

Etc. Crazy huh?

Neither was the early 2.8L that they actually marketed as a 'truck' kit. I didn't have to swap accessories but I have made quiet a few mods to make everything work well and look nice. Nice work with the 3.6L. I look forward to seeing your future progress with this truck.
